"Sir, Duolun City is attacking from all sides to pursue the fleeing Haraqin and Duoyan tribes. So far, it has captured more than 70,000 herdsmen, with a population of nearly 400,000. However, the nobles and lords of various tribes abandoned the tribesmen and fled."
Xiaoyu said.
"Where can they escape? Is there still a place for them on this grassland?" Yang Fan said disdainfully. In the world on the grassland, the winner has everything, and the loser has nowhere to go.
"Master, according to the latest intelligence brought by the scouts, Li Yongfang and Fan Wencheng somehow persuaded them. Khan Ahai and Buyan Ahai took Taiji and Tabu Nang and fled in all directions with their troops.
, it was impossible to trace them. They all ran away. According to the confessions of those caught during interrogation, they scattered and ran away, and then reunited in Shenyang, and Jiannu planned to take them in."
When Jiannu took them in, didn't Huang Taiji want to form the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Army? It seems that he had done him a big favor.
Haraqin's remaining soldiers are less than 30,000. Duoyan and Su Buti did not suffer any losses. Including the tribes in the middle, there are still 40,000 to 50,000 soldiers and horses. However, Su Buti probably will not join them in defecting to the Jian slaves and support the Jian slaves.
A slave acts as a slave.
If the people in the east of Duoyan were taken by them and ran to Shenyang, Jiannu could get about 60,000 Mongolian cavalry, which would be enough for them to form the Eight Mongolian Banners.
If, as in history, the Eight Banners of Mongolia had no military guards, and each Niulu had only 200 people. Calculating five Niulu and one Jiala, one Jiala would only have a thousand people.
Five Jia La form a Gushan, and Gushan is a flag. That Mongolian flag has only five thousand soldiers and horses.
The flag of Jiannu is composed of 7500 fighting soldiers and horses.
But in fact, the number of Niulu in each banner is different. This number is only the number of people in the flag with the smallest Niulu. For example, the two red flags of Daishan have very many Niulu. Far more than 25 Niulu.
These 60,000 people were enough to form the Eight Banners of Mongolia, which to a certain extent enhanced the strength of the slaves.
But the benefits are obvious, that is, this land is freed up. The nobles fled with their soldiers. The herdsmen have all returned to themselves. From the Nuruerhu Mountain on the flank of the Liaoxi Corridor to the outside of Zhangjiakou, there is no longer any Mongolian influence.
Already.
He then prepared for the Western Expedition, taking the opportunity to defeat the Tumuts and Ordos in one fell swoop and achieve complete control of Monan Mongolia.
In this way, it reaches the Liaoxi Corridor in the east, the Hexi Corridor in the west, the line of the Great Wall in the south, and the Mongolian Gobi in the north. This huge territory will be completely owned by the Ming Dynasty.
Except for the Guanningjin Defense Line, which is a narrow strip of the nine-border town, the remaining dangers to the north have been eliminated and no longer need to play a role.
If Chongzhen had the courage to dismantle all the important towns on the nine sides, he would have a lot of military spending left over.
Ming Dynasty's finances were able to turn losses into profits in no time.
Just support the Chahar people and prevent Lin Dan Khan from falling.
Let's see if we can help him bring Eastern Mongolia over. If Lin Dan Khan brings Eastern Mongolia over, there will be no chance of establishing a slave.
Even if we can't move them for a while, we can still seal them to the east of the Liao River.
The Guan Ning Army has also been withdrawn. There is no need to send additional Liao pay or anything else.
Clearly, the vision couldn't be better.
But right now, these Mongolians are running to become slaves. Do you just watch them run away?
Yang Fan touched his chin, they were running away in all directions, there was really no way to chase them.
After all, there are few people on our side. This grassland is flat and there are roads everywhere, so you can walk anywhere.
If there are fewer people, you may not be able to defeat them if you catch up, or you may even be eaten by them.
Forget it, just run away.
Yang Fan is not a Virgo and does not pursue perfection in his work. Nor is he a Taurus.
He is a Scorpio, a serious and sinister man.
Pretty much everything is fine.
Taiji, Nayan, and the herdsmen all ran away with their cronies, and the rest were the poor herdsmen at the bottom. They would work for whoever came anyway. They had already accepted their fate.
This can be considered a good thing, because it is these labor forces that we need.
There is no need for these nobles. If they run away on their own, they can save their own troubles.
Otherwise, I would have to separate them from the herdsmen and send them to work on road construction to prevent them from causing trouble.
The rules on the grassland are that after a herdsman is caught, he will treat him as his master and work for the new master.
It would be better if they all ran away. From now on, these herdsmen will only consider Yang Fan and his descendants as their masters.
Monkey's side has already accumulated tens of thousands of fine-wool sheep.
Now, as long as there are enough nomads, Yang Fan can transport Friesian cows and fine wool sheep to set up a settled ranch.
The Mongols had no leader, and the rest were easy for Yang Fan to manage.
Mongolia is just a loose nation, divided into hundreds of tribes, large and small, and their languages are also somewhat different. Their beliefs and customs are also very different from each other.
This time, we just broke down the tribal barriers and mixed them together. From now on, all their children will go to school together, and from now on, it will be enough that they are all Mongolians. It is a good opportunity to cancel their different tribes.
Everyone went to herd their own sheep and horses.
Including the more than 20,000 Mongolian households in Duolun, I have 100,000 Mongolian households in my hands. If I kill the Tumuts and Ordos later, I can add another 100,000 households.
There are 200,000 Mongolian households, which is stronger than Lin Dan Khan.
Then, continue to recruit refugees to come to the grasslands to work as textile workers. Your own wool textile industry can then be launched.
Lin Yueru snuggled into Yang Fan's arms, quietly enjoying the master's tenderness. Yang Fan's hand was around her waist, thinking and relaxing, and patting her back gently.
Tu Shanyue, Lin Yueru and the maids were all used to the master being in a daze from time to time. They knew that the master was thinking about military affairs at this time, and they held their breath to avoid interrupting the master's thoughts.
"Master, are those black coats you gave us last time made of woolen cloth? Can the wool on this grassland be spun into such high-end clothing?" Lin Yueru raised her head, looked at Yang Fan, and asked with big eyes.
.
The weather has started to get colder, so Yang Fan bought each of his wives a Burberry woolen coat.
The ladies all like it very much. They often wear these waist-defining windbreakers and take pictures of them in front of the coat mirror.
"Well, it won't work at the beginning. The materials for those clothes are very expensive, and they need to be gradually developed. However, the woolen fabrics we can produce in the early days are more suitable for winter than the current silk and cotton." Yang Fan patiently said
explained.
"Master, there are no good clothing materials in the winter of the Ming Dynasty. Except for cotton and linen jackets filled with silk wadding or cotton, there are all kinds of furs. Woolen and woolen fabrics are light and warm, and they will definitely sell well." Xiao Niangpi
also said.
"The business of food, clothing, housing and transportation is the biggest business in the world. As long as this part is not done well, Ming Dynasty's money will flow to our family like running water." Yang Fan said proudly.
"In the future, the Monan grassland will no longer produce rags. The grassland will become a cornucopia. After all, there are 20 million people in the Ming Dynasty who need clothes."
